Outdoors NSW and ACT Chief Executive, Lori Modde has been selected as one of 13 Association Influencers in 2020, an inaugural program hosted by the Australasian Society of Association Executives (AuSAE) highlighting the outstanding contributions of individuals in the association community across Australia and New Zealand.

An independent judging panel of experienced and passionate association leaders selected the Association Influencers based on how they demonstrated influence, exemplary leadership, unrivalled guidance, strength in resilience and service to the sector over the last 12 months.

Outdoors NSW and ACT President, Martin Burney notes “we are incredibly honoured that our CEO has been recognised as an AuSAE Association Influencer 2020.”

“Outdoors NSW and ACT has always tried hard to work for its members, and with the impacts of the bushfire and COVID-19 came extraordinary challenges. With Lori’s leadership we were able to unite the industry and work with national stakeholders to come together and plan our way forward. We are incredibly proud of what the organisation has achieved in 2020 and already in 2021, a result of the hard work by Lori and her team. We are excited about overcoming the challenges that lay before us and we have no doubt that with Lori at the helm, we will be able to navigate the way through”.

AuSAE took the opportunity to launch the inaugural Association Influencers Program in 2020, to recognise individuals in Australia and New Zealand’s Association sector as they stood front and centre - supporting, protecting and advocating for their members as the once in a generation global crisis unfolded. Lyn McMorran, AuSAE President and Judging Panelist described the high calibre of the nominees in this first year of the program.

“It has been our privilege to acknowledge each and every one of the nominated individuals; their tireless efforts to making a significant and lasting impact within the Association industry and setting the benchmark for their fellow professionals into the future.

“We thank all our nominees for their continued support and commitment to our community over the last 12 months and congratulate all our Association Influencers of 2020.”
